QUETTA: Balochistan Chief Minister Abdul Qudoos Bizenjo has approved a summary to grant the status of Special Economic District (SED) to Gwadar for the city’s development and promotion of port-related activities.

An official handout issued on Saturday said the initiative would encourage exemptions on taxes for industrial activities. Investors would also be able to get a discount on visa policy, it said. This would promote trade, tourism, real estate and hospitality sectors in the province.
